GIGA

ST. JOHN WELLES LUCAS
English novelist and poet
(1879 - 1934)

But in come canine Paradise
  Your wraith, I know, rebukes the moon,
    And quarters every plain and hill,
      Seeking its master. . . . As for me
        This prayer at least the gods fulfill
          That when I pass the flood and see
            Old Charon by Stygian coast
              Take toll of all the shades who land,
                Your little, faithful barking ghost
                  May leap to lick my phantom hand.
      - To a Dog [Dogs]
